    R. E. Lee: Volume Three by Douglas Southall Freeman | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: R. E. Lee: Volume Three Author: Douglas Southall Freeman Narrator: Charlton Griffin Format: Unabridged Length: 17 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 01-22-18 Publisher: Audio Connoisseur Genres: History, American Summary: Volume three opens in May 1863 as Lee assessed his situation after the great Confederate victory at Chancellorsville and the loss of General Jackson. Lee quickly reorganized his army and headed north, hoping to inflict a war-ending defeat on the Union. But absent Jackson, his army was not the same. At Gettysburg, after three days of horrific fighting climaxed by Pickett's disastrous charge, almost one-third of Lee's entire army was killed, wounded, or captured. Meade's losses were identical, but he had greater reserves. Retreating to Virginia, Lee spent the next nine months bolstering his army with ever dwindling provisions. As the winter of 1863-64 came to an end, Lee prepared his troops for renewed action. But due to attrition, he had lost the initiative and could fight only a defensive war against an overwhelming, implacable foe: U. S. Grant. But Grant soon realized the valiant Army of Northern Virginia was like no army he had ever faced. With veteran troops numbering fewer than half those of Grant, Lee grimly managed to grind the Union army to a halt in front of Richmond. But for how long? Listeners are urged to follow battles using the maps Freeman himself drew, which are included in the accompanying downloadable PDF document. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

    The 10 Biggest Civil War Blunders by Edward H. Bonekemper III | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: The 10 Biggest Civil War Blunders Author: Edward H. Bonekemper III Narrator: Peter Berkrot Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 01-22-18 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Genres: History, American Summary: What makes the Civil War so fascinating is that it presents an endless number of "what if" scenarios - moments when the outcome of the war (and therefore world history) hinged on a single small mistake or omission. In this audiobook, Civil War historian Edward Bonekemper highlights the 10 biggest Civil War blunders, focusing in on intimate moments of military indecision and inaction involving great generals like Robert E. Lee, Ulysses S. Grant, and William T. Sherman as well as less effective generals such as George B. McClellan, Benjamin Butler, and Henry W. Halleck. Bonekemper shows how these 10 blunders significantly affected the outcome of the war, and explores how history might easily have been very different if these blunders were avoided.

Longfellow. Hijo de un inmigrante francés y criado en un modesto hogar americano de mediados del siglo XVIII, desde muy joven comprendió a cabalidad el significado del esfuerzo propio y de tener sólidas convicciones y sentido de la moral, puesto que debió hacerse cargo de su familia y el negocio de su padre, que falleciera dejando sobre sus hombros una gran responsabilidad. Fue por esos mismo valores que abrazó la causa libertaria de la nación que albergaba a su familia, sus sueños y esperanzas, sirviendo al ejército patriota y colaborando destacablemente en varias ocasiones hasta ver lograda la independencia de los Estados Unidos, no sin dejar tras su muerte un romántico legado que hoy forma parte del imaginario de su su patria.

    Liver-Eating Johnson by Charles River Editors | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Liver-Eating Johnson Author: Charles River Editors Narrator: Dan Gallagher Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 15 mins Language: English Release date: 01-19-18 Publisher: Charles River Editors Genres: History, American Summary: To possess and develop western North America became a high priority for the United States government even before its Constitution had been complete. For President Thomas Jefferson, the vast terrain of plains, mountains, and extensive coastlines offered both long-term prosperity and protection from competing international powers. Railroads were still some decades off, and passable roads were all but nonexistent. From its first interactions with numerous Indian cultures, the government understood that the western portion of the continent was already "owned" by a variety of indigenous tribes, despite their alternate concept of ownership. To gain possession of the coasts and the interior meant there would be new languages to be learned, hundreds of treaties to be struck, and wars to be fought over several regions. No familiar institutions of power were suitable for creating a foothold in the continent's interior, especially in the Rocky Mountain region. The US Army eventually made inroads to the Great Plains and beyond, but the first true explorers of the far wests interior arose from within a relatively small culture embodied by the American mountain man. By the golden age of the mountain man in the mid-19th-century, there were perhaps only 3,000 living in the West. Their origins were disparate, although they included many Anglo-Americans. A good number hailed from wilderness regions of Kentucky and Virginia and throughout the newly purchased Louisiana Territory, which occupied the entire central section of the continent. French Canadians traveled from the north to work in the fur trade, while Creole-Europeans represented approximately 15% of the men known to be living the isolated mountain life. Although the most enduring accomplishments belonged to the mountain men who had discovered, charted, and helped build the great passes through the Rockies to the west, others have retained public fascination for simply being colorful and elusive historical personalities. Such was the case of a legend who came to be known by the singularly unappetizing moniker of Liver-Eating Johnson. One of the mountain men who was present from the peak of mountain culture to its twilight, his literal accomplishments are few and of limited scope in the sense of exploration; however, he is intimately associated with a dangerous life of intrigue, revenge, and physical horrors unspeakable in polite society. While his colleagues took steps to tame the American wilderness, he became a symbol of its savagery. Johnsons protracted war of vengeance speaks of a constant interaction with the Crow culture of the northwest and the territories of Wyoming and Montana in particular. Liver-Eating Johnson: The Life and Legacy of the Famous Mountain Man looks at the life and legends of one of the Wests most famous men. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

    The War Scroll: The War of the Sons of Light Against the Sons of Darkness by Joseph Lumpkin | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: The War Scroll: The War of the Sons of Light Against the Sons of Darkness Author: Joseph Lumpkin Narrator: Dennis Logan Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 4 mins Language: English Release date: 01-19-18 Publisher: Fifth Estate Genres: History, Ancient Summary: Following in the apocalyptic visions of Daniel, Ezekiel, and Revelation, The War Scroll reveals the conflict between good and evil in the final days of mankind. Popularly known as "The War of the Sons of Light Against the Sons of Darkness", The War Scroll is one of the seven original Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in Qumran in 1947 and holds the Qumran library designator of "1QM", meaning it was produced from the dig of cave one. The War Scroll is a very important piece of literature in our understanding of the concepts of divine justice and retribution held by the Jewish community of the Essenes and the Qumran Community in the time of Jewish persecution by Rome. The scroll reflects a belief that in the end times, evil would be eradicated by the Power of God and his Sons of Light. The Qumran community saw itself as a righteous light in the world, solidly on the side of good. As Gods army, they would fight evil in the world, and with God's help, through his agent, Michael the Archangel, they would win the battle against the Sons of Darkness and bring back righteousness and peace. The text is replete with parallel biblical and apocryphal verses, commentary, and references to numerical symbolism, all intended to lead the listener into an appreciation and understanding of the text.

    Peter of New Amsterdam by James Otis | Free Audiobook

    Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Peter of New Amsterdam Author: James Otis Narrator: Jim Hodges Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs Language: English Release date: 01-09-18 Publisher: Made for Success Genres: History, American Summary: Bring history back to life through Jim Hodges' historically accurate, exciting, and edifying audio recordings. Twelve-year-old Peter Hulbert is left an orphan in Leyden, Holland, as the rest of the Pilgrims sail for the New World. A merchant of the West India Company takes him to New Amsterdam as his servant. Here Peter's adventures begin in this historically accurate tale of life in old New York. The purpose of this story is to show children the home life of the colonists they meet in their history books. So that the stories may appeal more directly to the children, they are told from the viewpoint of a child and purport to have been related by a child. It is entertaining as well as instructive for young people to hear of the toil and privations in the homes of those who came into a new world to build a country for themselves, and such facts are not to be found in history books. Written in the 1800s, the Young Listeners Collection features children's stories from yesterday's classics. Learn from our nation's founders whose Christian faith was lived out in the lives of the characters in these stories. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com
